I felt quite sorry for them all, my camera was small, discrete, ego free and slipped into my pocket as I walked away and popped into a nice local Tapas restaurant.
Will they have taken better photos than me? Maybe, but not because of the camera they were wielding. Watching them one or two seemed to have a different idea, a dead flower in the foreground, one girl climbed into a window to take a shot from a different angle (I got a shot of her doing this). On the whole they were probably taking a lot more time to get the same shot as me, and I'm sure mine will hold up IQ wise, and I went through a lot quicker than anybody else (an inpatient wife can influence this).
Maybe I need the expensive D3s with selected expensive 2.8 lenses at home not to feel intimidated by the the DSLRs, whilst I'm walking around with a P&S, but maybe I've just grown up.
Of course the Sony RX100 isn't the same as a P&S that was available 2 years ago, so maybe I'm just ahead of the curve.
